The monthly meeting of the Athletic club will be held Monday, June 31, at the club room on Orange street. The Corbin Red Sox baseball team will practice Friday night at 6:15 o'cléck on Diamond No. 1 at Willow Brook park. All members are ask- ed to be on hand as the team is scheduled to go to Taftville next Sunday to play the J. B. Martin Co. team of that town. Nom Begley's Spring and Buckley baseball team took , the Patterson Chevrolet nine into camp last night at Willow Brook park by the score of 8:to 5. Spring and Anderson star- red in the field for the Springbucks while Charlie Heinzmann was the heavy sticker. Roy Tiger did the twirling for the electricians. 3 Johnny Clinch reports himself in excellent shape for his battle Friday night in Briston with Young Oliver of Bridgepert. Johnny has been work- ing out daily and he is ready for the toughest opposition the Bridgeport boy can offer him. Clinch is being groomed for big- ger fighting than he has been doing in these parts and if he comes along at the fast rate he is now traveling, he should hit the big time in a couple of years. The Herald will announce a blow by blow account of the Paulino- Schmeling scrap at the Yankee Sta- dium tomorrow night. The refusal of the promoters to allow the fight to be broadcast over the radio should merve to bring out a big crowd of fight fans to hear the returns. The account will be sent from ringside over the telegraph lines of the As- sociated Press. “Red"” Campbell gave it as his epinion the other day that the best baseball team ever gotten together in this city was the one which rep- resented the Fifth Ward in the old Ward League. Jimmy Maher agreed with him. “Red"” used to play third base for that team and others from “Nigger Hill” who were on the club included Charley Miller and several others. Tommy Haines, who suffered a fractured ankle last week while catching for the New Britain Ma- chine team in the Industrial league. was at the park last night on a pair of crutches. Tommy's leg is coming along OK. A young son of Bates, first base- man and captain of the P. & I. Cor- bin team last night was struck by a hard hit ball off the bat of Wen- droski of the Stanley Works. Fortu- nately the youngster was hit in the arm and not in the body. Serious in- jury would have been caused had he been hit in the head or the chest. He was sitting on the players' bench when “Zigge" turned on a fast onc.| It was a terrific drive.

He had taken 80 strokes on his third round and was presumed to be safely an- chored with the also rans. | As the debate reached the rebul- tal stage a pop-eyed caddy rushed into the barn like etructure housing the scriveners to say that “Wild Bill” was wild again and had gone out in 32 stroke A few more fig- ures revealed that if he could coma2 in with “even fours" he would have | a 72 hele score of 300, and it was conceded at that stage that anyone getting under 300 surely would win It developed finally that 300 would have won without a play-off.

UNPOPULAR DECGISION rilla” Jomes of Akrom, 0, Takes Close Verdict From Jack Mcvey, Boston, June 26 (UP)—William | “Gorilla” Jones of Akron, O., won an unpopular decision over Jack Mo Vey of New York in a 10-round bout at Braves field last night. About | 10,000 braved a threatening storm to sce the clash. Fans booed the verdict that gave the mid-western battler the negro middleweight title. A majority of ringside writers had credited McVey with rounds 3, 4, 6. 7 and 9, and had listed the first and tenth rounds as even.

The Elm City Colored Giants, one of the most famous of haseball teams, will battle the Southenders this Sunday latternoon. The New Haven team claims the colored championship of the state and was runner-up for the colored championship of New Eng- land. The team is noted for its hitting ability and it has on its roster some of the best infielders in the atate. The comedy of the players is worth the price of admission. The crew will be led by “Cannonball” Smith, whese prowess as a pitcher is well known throughout the state. Kensington will use the same lie- up as= heretofore except that Pechuk will probably draw the pitching as- signment BURNS GOES Just a few years ago Georgs Burns. first baseman for the Cléve- land Indians, was voted the most valuable player in the American league.
